How to make Yakgwa - melt in your mouth Korean Flower Honey Pastry!

Описание: Have you ever tasted something so delicious that you just can't stop craving it? I don't make this too often because I just can't help eating it!!

If you love a sweet treat that just melts in your mouth, then you’re sure to love my Korea Yakgwa. Yakgwa is a traditional pastry made from honey, sesame oil, honey, rice syrup and flour (sometimes soju but not this recipe) and it's been enjoyed in Korea since the 16th century. The texture is slightly crispy on the outside then soft, crumbly and moist on the inside so once you start chewing, they will totally melt in your mouth!

In this video, we'll show you how to make your own delicious yakgwa at home! And it tastes SO MUCH BETTER than ones you buy from stores! You'll learn what ingredients you'll need, the steps of making the pastry, and the secret to getting the perfect melt-in-your-mouth texture.

This Yakgwa is also called Chapssal Yakgwa as a bit of sweet rice flour is added. The other kind is called Gaeseong Yakgwa 개성약과 and is typically not made into this flower shape. I will have a video of that soon.
